Have it aligned. When you have it alligned they set the steering wheel at dead center, then from there they adjust you camber/caster/toe. Its not expensive, and it's a good idea. Its much harder to do something like this without a machine.

At school, the alignment machine pretty much does it for you. After you put the steering wheel at dead center, and attach some laser plates to the wheels, the machine tell you exactly what values you're at, and what to do to adjust them. After you do the adjustment it reads the new setting and tells you if anything is off. It completely idiot proff.

Well, if you'd like to get the measurments, go outside with a tape measure and do it. If you try to do an alignment like this you're destin for failure. Good Luck
